Chapter 233 A Treasure Found By Director Sun
Soon after the clapperboard was hit, the surrounding people soon clapped their hands as if they were standing inside a dome where athletes would perform so great and they couldn't help but do a standing ovation for the athlete. In their case, some don't even need to stand and just clap their hands. While some even wiped the tears on the corners of their eyes.
Director Sun heard his own heart drumming inside his chest. He never felt this kind of sensation where his blood was pumping and boiling within his body.
Only until he watched Ran Xueyi act her role as Ruan Jiaojiao did he finally feel what it means to be a director who found a treasure.
Director Sun forgot to call out and when he recovered his senses, he quickly said, "Alright, Cut! This scene is spectacular! You all did a great job."
The four actors were still in their position and waited for Director Sun to call cut, and when he finally did, they soon relaxed and slumped down to the ground.
The scene just now was too nerve-wracking.
Previously, Su Zixi and Miao Li thought they could waltz over in this scene and act in their usual state. However, they were once proven wrong once they saw Ran Xueyi standing before them and acted against them.
The scene where Ruan Jiaojiao taunted them endlessly, made them somehow realize how crooked the law system in their world can be, and how cruel she could be to everyone around her and herself, it was truly beautiful. And only Ran Xueyi made this role turn out into this.
If it were anyone else, Su Zixi and Miao Li did not know if they could pull it off.
Thankfully, Ran Xueyi came to their studio to play as Ruan Jiaojiao.
Ruan Jiaojiao was a complicated role, after all. She was not only a two-faced character that doesn't have any depth. Her role was like two contrasting colors that neither wanted to mix but always clashed on. Ruan Jiaojiao, herself thought that she could be as selfless and ruthless, but when she met the main characters and spent time with them, she somehow found warmth once again and her mind continued to sway.
Professor Tang's appearance, however, clouded her mind, leading her to commit a crime once again.
Ran Xueyi remembered when she read the script for her role, she almost wanted to cry. Ruan Jiaojiao's life was too miserable. She lost her little sister after she was abused and SA'd by a teacher. That teacher got some connection in the government and was not given any sentence. He was released and got to live another day.
On the other hand, Ruan Jiaojiao's little sister, who was around 10 years old at that time, was found floating in the river, lifeless. Ruan Jiaojiao went crazy from this incident and was finally adopted by the Chief Director Officer, who was overlooking the case at that time and let the culprit go as if nothing happened.
Since then, she has ventured out on a journey of no return. She continued to commit a crime of murders. Her main targets were all criminals who had done vile and ruthless things to innocent people and got away through their money and connections.
At the very end of her journey, she finally killed the adopted father who helped her little sister's murderer get away. Of course, Professor Tang, the man who killed her little sister, didn't get a happy ending as well.
As for Gao Yang and Yao Mu...
The two will live in regret when they find out the truth.

Unfortunately, Ruan Jiaojiao was the existence that made their characters seem unsightly and annoying.
But that's how human nature and world laws are.
"D*mn it... Why did the writer have to kill Ruan Jiaojiao? Wouldn't it be better if she and the main leads worked together to fight evil criminals in the country?" Miao Li huffed and complained.
Su Zixi smiled helplessly, "You're right..."
Honestly, he really liked the role of Ruan Jiaojiao. If only there was no gender for the role, he would have signed up for it. Who wouldn't want a role that the audience would fall in love with once it was shown to them?
However, he still had some reservation and understanding of his own acting skill. He might be able to satisfy the directors and audience with his acting, but he will never be able to pull off the perfect assimilation of the role and himself like what Ran Xueyi did.
"What do you think, Sister Ran? Should we ask the writer to extend and put new scenes for you?" Miao Li approached the director's tent where Ran Xueyi was.
After Ran Xueyi heard the director call 'cut', she didn't stay where she was lying on the ground and quickly approached the monitor and watched the replay.
Director Sun heard Miao Li's suggestion and thought hard on it. It seems that it wasn't such a bad idea.
However, they still need Ran Xueyi's opinion about this.
Unexpectedly, Ran Xueyi said, "No, I don't think so."
"Why?" Miao Li seemed shocked when she heard her.
If it were others, they would jump directly to take this chance to get more scenes. Even Director Sun was surprised to hear her.
Ran Xueyi explained when she noticed their eyes on her, "If there were more scenes for Ruan Jiaojiao, her character would lose its essence. Ruan Jiaojiao is a mysterious and complicated character. If we add more scenes, I don't think the audience will react as well as when she has fewer scenes."
Director Sun understood what Ran Xueyi was saying. A character would lose its meaning if it's overplayed. Just like when you eat too much ice cream and you would grow sick of it.
Besides, Ruan Jiaojiao was just one of the many other villains in the movie and a third main character. It really wasn't good to add more scenes for her.
After discussing a few more details and taking some closeup shots, Ran Xueyi finished all her scenes.
In order to celebrate her final scene at the studio, the production crew gave her a surprise. Everyone gave her a big red envelope and they even paused everything that day for them to go out and eat together.
After eating supper with everyone else, Ran Xueyi ran back to her hotel room to pack her clothes. In order for her to finish her scenes quickly, she decided to live in a hotel room so she could easily go to the studio whenever she had a scene.
When she closed the door behind her, Ran Xueyi felt the nausea that had been burning her inside climb up to her throat.
She ran towards the bathroom and threw up everything she ate earlier.
